There weren't many lecture notes for this week. There are
two resources I mentioned.
1. Jed's program is called segfault.c, it's in
~ajdavis/cs1000/lab2.
2. The gdb manual can be invoked with 'info gdb' on
the linux machines. However, this will put you in one of
those oh-so-intuitive text interfaces Richard Stallman is
famous for. Yes, if you spent half an hour learning the
interface with 'info info', you could be a whiz at reading
basic documentation and it could conceivably save you more
than half an hour over the next few years. On the other
hand, RMS has been using Emacs longer than anyone, and for
a while he was so incapacitated by carpal tunnel syndrome
that he had to pay grad students to take code dictations,
so perhaps his UI design skills aren't the best....
Therefore, I recommend 'gnome-help-browser info:gdb
&'. Reading the sample session is a particularly good
jump start.
